In fact, they were one of the first Cryptocurrency related projects team to do so! These and many other facts have made this team gather a huge community and a big number of followers who have been helping a lot in the implementation of several developments.

These last few months have been very harsh for the team; the price has been falling drastically, and it seems to continue to dip further down. While fierce competition is growing by the day in the crypto ecosystem, the team has been flooded by work and constantly struggling to keep the project going on forward. The team has been working relentlessly towards the success of the project, and found that one extra pair of “coding hands” could be of extreme help. It would certainly be greatly appreciated especially because the team is hoping to implement some great new features. Now, a new Developer and an active community member has been summoned by the Vericoin Developer Team to help them accomplish their goals. Steve Woods is an experienced coder with several years of experience. He has been working on a new important feature called Turbobootsrapping; this feature enables faster blockchain downloads, along other minor features such as volume decimal decrease in the new Vericoin Wallet.About Steve Woods

Looking for a place to help-out, he began tinkering with the code, and one thing led to another. Steve has over 30 years of programming experience – 23 of them with a Fortune 100 company as a Systems Engineer and Infrastructure Specialist.

Guided be the spirit of community and decentralization Steve has shown interest in helping out on with development as an active community member.

The team announces new features

The team plans to introduce minor features such as chat. They also unveiled their intentions to implement 2FA security features directly onto the wallet and confirmed they are also working on a new protocol for integration with the Supernet. Finally, the team revealed that is working to implement profound changes in the wallet stacking process. They are trying to accomplish this in order to incentivise staking rather than raising big amounts of coins in one wallet. with this the team looks to change the way staking is implemented and feels that this task is a major technical goal they are facing right now.

So far, the ecosystem has been plagued by scams and anon developer teams with bad intentions trying to make huge profits and giving digital currencies a bad name. Teams like the Vericoin team are the ones that really care to give a real constructive contribute and make us all still believe in this risky game.
